EXAMPLE OF USE
We reaffirm that the most effective policy to integrate ICT in education is through whole
school-based planning, teacher training and professional development. We highlight
that the challenge is not only to develop ICT competency standards for teachers and
prepare teachers to integrate ICT in their pedagogy, but also to offer continuous support
and to provide them with the incentives and the professional motivation to unlock ICT to
enhance the quality of learning. To incentivize teachers, governments and institutions
are recommended to integrate the evaluation of the use of ICT by institutions and
teachers into the systems and practices for monitoring the quality of learning. (2017
